Three Nod Shadow teams deployed outside the base and plant bombs on the communications tower motorpool and hangers. The communications tower survived the first charges, and the base sent out a distress call before the base personel retreated to the remains of the old Japanese POW camp and set up defensive positions. The first real part of the battle occured when NOD's Carryalls began their approach. Tory's Su-35 and IceBite's F-14D launch to engage the dropships, but Tory's plane was damaged by Nod fighters. Fortunetly, IceBite used a Tow Cable to carefully return the damaged fighter to base. Then the fight went to the ground. Sarah Harper arrived with Kane and they joined the fight. During the battle, Tory was injured by Kane's Redeemer while Dawn was hit by the wash of an Avatar's laser. May was near a hanger when it was blown up, injuring her as well. IceBite was forced to recover them, with the aid of then-mercenary ODST Grievous, and make Hellcat Squadran's forces retreat. However, Nod followed them and prepared to crush the remaining survivors.

By the 3rd day of the battle, Hellcat Squadran's forces were pushed back to a small cliff. Fortunetly, help came in the form of a force of Covenant Separatist Phantoms, Seraphs, and UNSC Longswords and Shortswords. Tory and May re-enter the fight, despite their injuries. Tory overloaded Kane's Redeemer with a large burst of electical energy, and May injured Sarah with her water powers. The defeat of the 2 leaders caused Nod to retreat. Hellcat Squadran's remaining Vehicles manage to shoot down a few retreating Carryalls as Nod retreated. The Battle ended in a Narrow victory for Hellcat Squadran.
